XT 250 2 valve,Looking at doing a fork swap for something 42/43mm Yamaha. Trouble is the standard steering head bearings are the bicycle type (loose ball bearings), anything 42/43mm has tapered bearings.Question is does anyone have experience with a swap of this description ? What triple clamps did you use?

Im currently in the market for a second hand $10k single cab ute as a run around, been sussing out Hilux's mostly over the last few days...then this http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/dundowran/cars-vans-utes/1974-ford-falcon-ute/1132526188 came out of left field, always loved the shape of the fastback falcons, question is, Is it a $14k car ?I know it's a how long is a peice of string question, I've tried to do some research but there doesn't seem to be any on the market in this condition.Thoughts?

Anyone got a link to rebuild specs fro a wp 4681 shock.Just had one rebuilt at a dealer and it feels like a pogo stick, zero damping. They say they can't find any specs on the shock, so have just guessed settings (oil weight, volume, air pressure etc).Bugger!!

Currently chasing some bits for a Rotax 406 rebuild and have come across the crank bearings at $80 each for genuine !!!the size is available at the local bearing shop for less than half the price, but the sales guy warned me that they may not be suitable for a two stroke crank application.They are c3, 30x72x19, Des anyone know of other manufacturer that runs the same size crank bearings?Thanks in advance.

I've been watching the price of VMX bikes skyrocket recently, with even broken down dungers seeking $2 and $3k prices.It's cheaper to buy and rebuild a 3 yr old 450 and go race moderns. Are people really prepared to pay up to $12k for over restored bikes or are the sellers just kidding themselves?
